About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

Gamle Aker cemetery surrounds Oslo's oldest building, Old Aker church, from approx. 1180. The cemetery was taken into use as early as the Middle Ages, it lies between Telthusbakken, Akersbakken and Maridalsveien. Just southwest of the cemetery lies the more well-known Vår Frelsers gravlund.

The area down Maridalsveien was created by the municipality of Aker in 1837 for the burial of cholera victims. The cemetery was then expanded in 1918 and 1929, the newest burial grounds being from the 1940s. The cemetery has a memorial grove for anonymous urn graves with a common monument. Today, only people connected to the already buried, or to Gamle Asker's parish, can be buried here - it is only allowed with urn graves.
